RG3 got sacrified by a staff who wanted to win a game more than keep their franchise QB healthy.Ok that was a lazy comparison on my end. However, Jackson has a slight build for his playing style and he has average passing accuracy. Easy to see him get caught up in the wash in the NFL and end up another College phenom whose game didn't translate for long after those first few injuries. Regardless, I think RG III was a case study in why that game doesn't work so well when everyone is big and fast and right or wrong it's easy to speculate that ole Lamar will end up the same way.
Again, one had a lengthy injury history. One does not.
Man, Kiper has Josh Allen going 1.1 in his mock.
Say what you want about Kiper, the dude is well connected and has some of the best sources out there. I would take note.
Mock drafts across the internet will be revising their QB rankings by the weekend...
I hope Barkley or Chubb fall to the Bucs at 7. If not, I'd be happy with drafting Quenton Nelson or trading back.
It’s hard to fathom a player with such poor statistics - playing at Wyoming no less - going that high. But Kiper doesn’t pull this stuff out of his ass. He also had some other names I haven’t seen yet in his Top 32.
With that said, Allen is by far the most talented QB in this draft. He’s huge, very athletic, and will have a Top 3 NFL arm the first day he steps on the field.
Yup, and technically he's playing D1, which is a higher level than Carson Wentz at North Dakota. I think it's less about college production anymore, because the pro game is so different. They want someone whose physical abilities and mental capacity matches up with the current pro QB archetype.
Speaking of Key, there was a clip someone posted on twitter of Nelson basically chokeslamming his ass on blitzNelson would be a perfect pick (definitely over Barkley).
I haven’t watched Chubb yet. I typically wait on the combine for edge guys bc athleticism is such an important aspect for that position specifically. But this doesn’t look like a good edge class. I don’t like Key or Landry.
Nelson is a 49er, sorry guys.
